Healthy habits: Eat more veggies! Vegetable frittata

Since apparently I didn't have enough stuff to do with my other challenge, the Indie travel challenge, I decided to embark in a healthy eating challenge as well. "Cooking Light's 12 healthy habits" seemed like a good option, since it isn't too demanding but at the same time it does push you toward a better way of eating and living.

January's challenge (I know, I'm a bit late, aren't I?) is to eat more vegetables, specifically to "Add 3 more servings of fruits and vegetables to your diet each day". Since I'm intolerant to most raw fruit and I don't really care for cooked fruit, I have decided to add vegetables to my daily diet and call it a day. It isn't too much of a challenge for me, as I really like veggies anyways, but I have decided to concentrate on some good vegeterian recipes that I can take to the office with me and eat for lunch.

Today I brought a nice frittata packed with tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini and fresh herbs. Easy to make, delicious to eat and, most of all, nice and light, so I didn't feel that after-lunch fatigue overcoming me.

We've been doing the "more veggies" thing for awhile now and the weird thing is that when we DON'T have vegs for either lunch or dinner, our bods feel a little off. Example: I kinda went nuts last night at the pizzeria and ordered a Carbonara pizza (pomo, mozz, pancetta, grana, egg on top) because the word-recognition thing had me salivating for the original. Anyways, it felt so heavy in my stomach along with the beer and needless to say, sleep last night was touch and go.
